Parking

Limit
Change
To
Be
Delayed
Lack
of
Necessary
Plates
Prevents
Work
of
Switch-Over
New
dials
for
the
Altbn
parking
meters
have
arrived
but
the
changeover
to
the
new
parking
time
limits,
recently
established
by
city
ordinance,
likely
cannot
be
made
effective
until
sometime
next
month.
Ray
Crane,
the
city
meter
maintainer,
said
today
that
the
new
meter
dials
one
set
for
1-hour
meters,
the
other
for
30-minute
meters,
are
both
on
hand,
but
still
awaited
are
the
new
plates
to
be
attached
to
the
meters
listing
the
new
parking
hours.
Extensive
Job..
The
meter
plates,
he
said,
are
expected
at
any
time
now,
but
affixing
these
plates,
and
also
changing
the
dials
in
the
city's
more
than
700
meters
will
be
an
extensive
job.
Likely
it
will
have
to
be
done
by
sections
of
a
few
blocks
at
a
time,
and
possibly
the
new
regulations
can
be
made
effective
for
each
section
as
the
altertions
are
completed.
Some
special
large
signs
to
be
posted
in
the
"short
time"
districts
also
remain
to
be
provided.
Retiming
of
the
meter
clocks,
Crane
explained,
can
be
done
by
a
fairly
simple
adjustment
to
the
clock
mechanism.
The
job
that
will
take
the
most
time
will
be
to
install
the
new
dials
and
affix
the
plates,'
and
it
may
be
most
expedient
to
do
this
work
in
the
maintenance
shop
on
the
police
floor
of
the
City
Hall.
Just
how
the
changeover
will
be
carried
out
likely
will
be
up
for
final
decision
after
the
new
city
administration
takes
over
sfod
everything
is
in
readinesd
to
carry
out
the
meter
revamping
as
speedily
as
possible,
Crane
suggested.
Rates
Chdfcged
Under
the
ordinance
enacted
by
the
City
Council
late
in
February
on
recommendation
of
the
advisory
committee
on
parking
lots
and
parking
problems,
a
30-minute
parking
limit
at
a
rate
of
five
cents
was
set
for
meters
on
W.
Third
between
State
and
Piasa
Sts.
and
also
on
E.
Broadway
between
Ridge
and
Henry
Sts.
On
all
other
parking
meters,
a
time
limit
of
1-hour
was
set,
the
rate
to
be
five
cents
an
hour
or
one
cent
for
each
12
minutes.
The
present
limit
on
all
meters
is
two
hours.
The
new
ordinance
also
increased
the
penalty
fee
for
violations
of
parking
regulations
from
the
present
$1
to
J2.

U.
a
long
tedious
road
that
had
to
be
pursued
until
the
money
was
today
legally
turned
over.
Mr.
Drummond
was
a
long-time
resident
of
Alton.
He
started
In
the
plug
tobacco
business
here
and
one
time
he
was
mayor
of
Alton.
It
is
supposed
that
at
the
time
of
making
his
will
Mr.
Drummond,
then
a
resident
of
St.
Louis,
believed
that
the
City
of
Alton
would
be
the
best
custodian
to
serve
as
trustee
as,
in
his
days
as
mayor
the
City
of
Alton
did
own
and
control
the
Alton
cemetery.
Possibly
he
erroneously
believed
the
old
situation
still
existed
when
he
made
his
will
and
therefore
he
left
the
money
to
the
city.
Complications
developed
with
regard
to
the
money
so
that
for
years
the
Alton
cemetery
did
not
receive
any
part
of
the
trust
fund's
income.
Finally,
the
cemetery
board
was
able
to
show
a
proper
cause
for
putting
the
money
into
the
hands
of
the
cemetery
fund
where
it
will
hereafter
be
held
iri
trust
with
the
condition
the
cemetery
will
derive
its
legal
portion
of
the
income.
This
was
made
poossible
when,
a
year
or
so
ago,
the
City
of
Alton
acoepted
ownership
of
the
cemetery.
The
city,
in
so
doing,
prepared
the
way
for
making
both
principal
and
the
accumulated
income
from
the
Drummond
trust
fund
available
for
use
Under
direction
of
the
directors
of
the
Alton
cemetery
as
Mr.
Drummond
had
provided..
The
proper
guarantee
is
furnished
by
the
city
and
by
First
National
Bank
&
Trust
Co.
that
all*
requirements
had
been
complied
with,
so
today
the
legal
requirements
all
were
conformed
with.
.-
•
The
turning
over
of
the
money
to
the
cemetery
board's
management
will
be
a
relief
to
the
cemetery
board
which
has
long
felt
handicapped
by
'lack
of
control
of
the
fund.
The
cemetery
board
has
been
making
rapid
progress
in
building
up
the
cemetery
trust
fund
until
the
present
day
total,
not
including
the
Drummond
principal
and

has
reached
$140,000

have

to
be
contributed
